  2. 1. Water quality modeling based on landscape analysis: importance of riparian hydrology

    Author : Thomas Grabs; Jan Seibert; Kevin Bishop; Hjalmar Laudon; Brian McGlynn; Georgia Destouni; Irena Creed; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Water quality model; terrain analysis; geographical information system GIS; riparian zone; total organic carbon TOC; boreal catchments; Hydrology; Hydrologi; geografi med naturgeografisk inriktning; Physical Geography;

    Abstract : Several studies in high-latitude catchments have demonstrated the importance of near-stream riparian zones as hydrogeochemical hotspots with a substantial influence on stream chemistry. An adequate representation of the spatial variability of riparian-zone processes and characteristics is the key for modeling spatio-temporal variations of stream-water quality. READ MORE

  4. 2. Information Needs for Water Resource and Risk Management : Hydro-Meteorological Data Value and Non-Traditional Information

    Author : Marc Girons Lopez; Jan Seibert; Sven Halldin; Thomas Grabs; Giuliano Di Baldassarre; Elena Toth; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water management; data resolution; non-traditional data; floods; modelling; social memory; precipitation; runoff; social media; interpolation; data value; gestió de l’aigua; resolució de les dades; dades no tradicionals; inundacions; modelització; memòria social; precipitació; escorrentia; xarxes socials; interpolació; valor de les dades; avrinning; befolkningars minne; dataupplösning; datavärde; interpolering; mjuk information; modellering; nederbörd; sociala medier; vattenförvaltning; översvämning; gestión del agua; resolución de los datos; datos no tradicionales; inundaciones; modelización; memoria social; precipitación; escorrentía; redes sociales; interpolación; valor de los datos; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : Data availability is extremely important for water management. Without data it would not be possible to know how much water is available or how often extreme events are likely to occur. The usually available hydro-meteorological data often have a limited representativeness and are affected by errors and uncertainties. READ MORE

  5. 3. Spatiotemporal streamflow variability in a boreal landscape : Importance of landscape composition for catchment hydrological functioning

    Author : Reinert Huseby Karlsen; Jan Seibert; Kevin Bishop; Thomas Grabs; Sarah E. Godsey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; streamflow; catchment hydrology; boreal; water balance; spatiotemporal variability; landscape analysis; climate change; recession curve; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

    Abstract : The understanding of how different parts of a landscape contribute to streamflow by storing and releasing water has long been a central issue in hydrology. Knowledge about what controls streamflow dynamics across landscapes can further our understanding of how catchments store and release water, facilitate predictions for ungauged catchments, and improve the management of water quality and resources.

  6. 4. Flood Prediction in data-scarce basins : Maximising the value of limited hydro-meteorological data

    Author : José Eduardo Reynolds Puga; Sven Halldin; Chong-Yu Xu; Jan Seibert; Thomas J. Grabs; Vazken Andréassian; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Floods; data scarcity; value of information; rainfall-runoff modelling; regionalisation; rainfall-forecasts; event-based calibration; climatological day; discharge day; temporal resolution; modelling time-step.; Databrist; flödestoppsbaserad kalibrering; högflöde; informationsvärde; klimatologiskt dygn; nederbörds-avrinningsmodell; modelltidssteg; regionalisering; regnprognos; tids-upplösning; vattenföringsdygn; översvämning.; Inundaciones; falta de datos; valor de información; modelos lluvia escorrentía; regionalización; pronósticos de lluvia; definición del día; resolución temporal; paso de tiempo.;

    Abstract : Floods pose a threat to society that can cause large socio-economic damages and loss of life in many parts of the world. Flood-forecasting models are required to provide simulations at temporal resolutions higher than a day in basins with concentration times smaller than 24 h. READ MORE

  7. 5. Reducing uncertainties in climate change impact studies through uni- and multivariate methods : A Nordic perspective

    Author : Faranak Tootoonchi; Claudia Teutschbein; Jan O. Haerter; Olle Räty; Thomas Grabs; Alex J. Cannon; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate change; precipitation and temperature; bias adjustment; bias correction; univariate and multivariate methods; hydrologic signatures; drought; Sweden; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

    Abstract : Climate change poses undeniable impacts on hydroclimatic processes due to simultaneous effects of rising temperature and changing precipitation patterns. To quantify these impacts, simulations of climate variables are typically retrieved from climate models, which are then downscaled and bias-adjusted for a particular study site. READ MORE
